The Foundation of Performance
At Extramet Products, we believe great tools start with great materials. You simply cannot build a high performance tool from anything less. That is why raw materials are never just another step in our process. They are the foundation of everything we deliver.
Whether you are drilling through solid rock or machining precision aerospace components, consistency matters. Our tungsten carbide is engineered for purity and reliability so you can focus on performance, tool life, and results you can trust.
Our Quality Commitment
Reliability starts at the source. We place a strict emphasis on purity, consistency, and traceability at every stage of material sourcing. By maintaining responsible supply chains and avoiding questionable sources, we ensure that every grain of powder meets our exacting standards.
This is not about simply meeting ISO 9001 requirements. It is about delivering the same high quality material every time you order. Batch after batch. Year after year. When you choose Extramet, consistency is built in.
Tungsten Carbide Blanks
Our pre-formed blanks are the canvas for your tools. Designed to shorten your production time, they provide a high-quality foundation for dies, wear parts, and cutting tools.
Customers rely on our blanks because they are consistent. The uniform hardness and durability mean you can push them harder in cutting, molding, and forming environments without worrying about material failure.
Tungsten Carbide Pins
Small but mighty, our pins are essential for alignment systems and high-load mechanical assemblies. Used heavily in oil & gas and mining, these components are built to retain their dimensional accuracy even in the harshest, grittiest operating environments.
From Powder to Product
Tungsten Carbide Rods
Rods are the backbone of the precision tooling industry. They become the end mills, drills, and reamers that shape our world.
Our rods are engineered for resistance. Whether you are machining titanium for an aircraft or steel for an automotive engine, our rods maintain their cutting precision over extended cycles, withstanding extreme heat and wear.

Engineered Grades for Specific Needs
6% Tungsten Carbide
Best for: Nonferrous metals, plastics, and composites.
This grade is the sprinter of our lineup. It offers high hardness and cutting efficiency, making it perfect for high-speed cutting where precision and tool life are the top priorities.
10% Tungsten Carbide
Best for: Hardened steels, high-alloy metals, and high-stress environments.
This grade is the heavyweight lifter. With greater toughness and impact resistance, it shines in the energy and oil & gas sectors where tools face extreme stress and shock.
